Another race-related insult from the left? Nah, just a palate cleanser with spice. This isn’t a goof on Steele’s authenticity but on his embarrassing habit recently of trying to make Republicans look hip via heavy-handed usage of slang that went stale years ago. Let’s hope the fact that the meme’s reached late-night TV is enough to warrant an intervention among the RNC leadership. It is, after all, hard to imagine The One sending “slum love” to anyone. Semi-related exit question: “You be da man”? Is she kidding?
